Does the steering mechanism for the "driver" turn the car wheels? My grandson wants to be able to build a car that can be turned one direction or the other.

It should be all directions. The rotation isn't so much the issue as placement. Basically, turning it like a steering wheel does nothing, but turning it left or right on the horizontal plane might help. The greatest difference is placement near a window or some location in the house that isn't behind a lot of concrete, metal or some other source of interference.

This model because it has the 3rd wheel. It turns so nice. The other one the wheels are stationary. That makes turning a little more difficult.

The only time the wheels have popped off have been if I am lifting it out of the van and one gets caught on something. And even then it's only been the front wheel (and only one) and it's my fault, really. So I haven't had that issue. I also haven't had issues with the steering. If it were a car, I'd rate it as I would a Buick or a high end Ford, not a Lincoln or Cadillac, but I have been through all kinds of terrain with it and never had a problem.

Yes they can definitley move around by shuffling their feet. My 4 year old grandson can use the steering wheel but my 2 year old granddaughter does the shuffling. This is a great toy and both kids use it alot.

Yes the wheels on the cars turn. My grandson scoots the cars all over the place.

Yes it does. We had a hard time make sure all the gears stayed together but it does turn the front wheel. Our steering wheel comes off all the time though.

Yes, this kit only works to motorize manually a model. You'll need to add a Lego Remote Control to control the movement, either fwr or reverse but no steering, unless you add a motor for that, all is possible. But this kit only works for moving and power the motor and lights in a model. If you build a car make sure to include the battery is incorporated in it, otherwise you have to carry the battery manually while moving the car. BTW this is impel also but is part of your design.I hope this works for you, is a fun kit.

They do not. It operates like a bulldozer would. Each "side" operates independently from the other "side". So no wheels turning left or right, but rather spinning one side while not gassing the other side will turn it

The wheels dont turn like a cars. To turn you have to either vary the speeds or inverse the rotation on one side. When spinning opposite directions it pivots almost perfects from the middle.

The steering wheel does not connect to the wheels so it does not allow the child to steer. However with their feet down and pushing themselves the child can maneuver the truck whichever direction they want.

No cannot steer with one hand. I bought for granddaughter and I went for a visit and tested it and the steering is awkward even hard to steer it straight There would be no way anyone could jog using this. Very disappointed in the steering mechanism. For the money seems ok on quality but useless for a walk. For baby it 12 month I would purchase one if those first step cars. They easy to push If you want to turn this bike that was nearly impossible.

no, there's no steering. The front wheels do turn but they aren't connect to the steering wheel.

No, the steering wheel is just there for the look. The wheels do not move at all. The doors do open though and you can see all the detailing on the inside.

Yes it steers. Turns to about to 10 o'clock and 2 o'clock. You have to steer and kind of go back and forth to make a sharp turn so you don't beet up the wood work.

I don't believe the wheels turn. This was given as a Christmas gift, but I believe the car was one plastic unit.

No it doesn't pull back and go. It's a simple bus that you have to drive around manually with your hand! Hope this helps!
